Weekly Golf Results – May 25, 2025

On Saturday the Parkes Golf Club sponsored an Individual Stableford event for members. Once again, the course had rebounded from some good rainfall and was in great condition for the 63 members and visitors that played the event.

The course wasn’t playing that easy although there was a northerly assisting, so the clubhouse leaders were sitting around the mid-thirties but we knew that wouldn’t hold. True to form a 37 was posted and that was the day’s benchmark. Garry Bryson was the first to post it was with a good front nine of 21 points but couldn’t match it on the back with a 16 point haul. It was a couple of hours. before he was caught but Dylan Hood did manage it, also recording a 37 and oddly enough the exact same split across the nines but he claimed Garry on a countback. Dylan has been in and around the finishes over the last month and had finally put the best round forward. But the drama wasn’t complete as Jake Thompson hitting off in the afternoon shot an even par 36 on the front 9 to also record a 21 point haul but again, he faded on the back with his 43 again only amounting to 16 points but unfortunately he also went under in the countback with Dylan.

Luke Clyne, after winning the trophy within his playing group, just missed the big prize with his 36 a good score on the day. 8 players finished in the peloton chasing home the leaders sitting on 35 points.

The Nearest The Pins winners were – Bridgestone Mining 1 st Wayne Powter at 230cm, Griffins Leading Edge by Craig Dunn at 138cm, Parkes Ready Mixed Concrete 9 th by Ian Phipps at 66cm, the Westlime 11th by Trevor Chatman at 156cm, the Gulf Western Oil 17th by David Brown at 47cm.
